Tightenings

Once in a while, it seems like there's a little bit of tightening of the uterus into a little ball, and I can feel it more prominently. These aren't frequent - maybe once a day or less, and are never painful or accompanied by any sort of "other" symptoms. I talked to the OBGYN about them, and she said that it shouldn't be a problem unless it was painful or accompanied by bleeding etc etc. They're probably Braxton Hicks, and in my "research", have come across a bunch of women having irregular uterine contractions in their second trimester, and of course it'll only get more prominent and frequent towards the end of the pregnancy, and it has all gone well with them.
